Ingredients

⅓ c. mayonnaise

2 tbsp. whole grain mustard

1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp. sugar

1½ tsp. kosher salt

1¼ lb. ground turkey (preferably a mix of dark and white meat)

½ tsp. finely ground black pepper

canola oil

¼ lb. Gruyère cheese

4 hamburger rolls

2 c. shredded red or green cabbage

Directions

Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set dressing aside.

Season turkey patties all over with remaining 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Carefully grease grill grates with oil, arrange patties on grill, and cook, flipping once, until deep golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. During the last few minutes of cooking, top burgers with cheese and toast buns on grill until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add cabbage to reserved dressing and toss well. Arrange burgers on buns, top with slaw, and serve.
